Hi Jane. Yeah, I was wondering about those darned antibiotics. No wonder so many people have GI problems with all those antibiotics thrown around out there. I think my GI tract was forever wounded from all the NSAIDS and antibiotics I had in my younger years. Didn't know the NSAIDS were bad for me, until it was too late.
Very unfortunate that most docs don't even appreciate what the antibiotics can do to you. Of course, they're needed for really bad things, but not a few little sniffles.
DH and I were just talking about fecal transplants awhile ago. Very interesting.
I used to take Calcium and magnesium every day but then my IBS turned into constipation and I stopped the Calcium. But I think I'll take at least 1 every couple of days. I eat tons of good veggies. But like I said earlier, my GI tract is having trouble with them. But I love wilted veggies, so I might just wilt things until my GI tract improves.
Funny, what seems to be good from my stomach, isn't always good for the rest of the tract and vice versa. I think my stomach is a big wuss.
I appreciate your suggestions!
